To have it right now, you can edit the GARS templates and add a conditional so that only defined groups can see the rate fields.
Other groups are still able to rate cause this only hides the field and does not really disable the function but for most of the things this should be fine.

I'd like to see this option as well. What I did for the moment is just removed the user ratings module. That way only the author can rate. Hadn't thought about adding a conditional...DOH!
